Bad Things That Can Happen If This Computation Is Not Made

IRS Auditor Question: Show me how you computed the
personal use fringe benefit for each vehicle. - This
is a frequent business audit question! If the agent is looking at
executive compensation, the agent will probably use the IRS's "Executive
Compensation - Fringe Benefits Audit Techniques Guide." Page 4 of that
guide specifically discusses personal use of a car or vehicle. Reports
generated by the Employee Auto Compensation Analyzer were able to successfully
defuse this issue.

If personal use of a company vehicle is not included
in on W-2s, and the IRS finds this:

Employees will have to amend old tax returns, and
pay tax that they didn't think that they owed. This is not good for employee
moral!

Employers can be subject the §6721 penalty for
failure to file a correct information return for each employee with personal use
of a company vehicle.

What Our Customers Say --

"At year end we have to calculate personal use of

Note:
This computation has several descriptions, including auto fringe, auto
fringe benefit, personal use of company vehicle.

In the "good old
days" the personal use of a business vehicle wasn't an issue. Back then, the employer looked the other way. The
employer got a deduction for the car. The employee got a "tax free" fringe for
personal use of the company car. Of course, that tax free fringe never was supposed to be
tax free at all.

Now Form 4562 has a specific
section where vehicle issues need to be disclosed. It is pretty clear on that form, if the
personal use of the car is not zero, the employer will have to include some amount on the W-2(s) for personal use of the vehicle(s). Failure to do that could result in penalties for the employer, additional tax
(when it is least expected) for the employee, possible preparer penalties and possible
dividend treatment.

The DTS Employee Auto Compensation Analyzer saves your time
and reduces your frustration dealing with these calculations. The program will lead you
through the qualification tests and make the calculations. The program helps you to
quickly arrive at the lowest allowable fringe benefit for personal use of
company
vehicles.

This program also computes
the auto inclusion or auto lease inclusion (vehicle inclusion or vehicle
lease inclusion) amounts.

Since both the employee and the IRS might be curious how this
calculation is made, the program generates excellent reports.
